The brand new Don Constantini Press Box opened up just in time for YSU's first home game of the 2019 season.

The new center houses all game-day operations including radio and television broadcasts, the replay booth and the coaches' booths.

The facility also has the Payiavlas Family Classroom, which will serve as an instructional area for broadcast students.

The donors for the new facility toured it for the first time Saturday.

"Well, it's awesome. It's my first trip to the facility, and it's certainly beyond my expectations," said dedicatee Don Constantini. "I think it's something that is going to be very helpful to the university."

The new multimedia center was announced in May and has been under construction since.
